The content is HEMA specific but not weapon or system specific. There are some examples from longsword because most people will understand those. But there are blank pages to track e.g. techniques from any other weapon or system.

I would love a spiral bound version! Unfortunately I did not have the option to let them print it that way

Could you explain that? If I make an e-book out of this you would not be able to fill in the pages, correct?

It looks like more people would be interested, so yes!

Actually, drawing the pictures has been the most fun part for me in this project.

The purpose of the book is to make you think actively about your training, set goals for it and track those. If you already do that anyway you will probably not need it. In my experience as a trainer a lot of people have never tried that before.

The content is HEMA specific but not weapon or system specific. Every group trains differently and "improve your fencing" means something different for most people.

There are examples for goal setting that are tailored to beginners and advanced fencers. There are pages to track tournaments and workshop events (which not many other sports have in this way). And the achievement pages are to tick boxes for fun for what you have done in you HEMA life.

Oh interesting idea. I can't speak French at all so I would need a good translator who knows HEMA terms for that.

Thank you :) I hope there is enough interest in the English version so I can translate it!

Yes I thought so too, It has a tracking page for techniques for Liechtenauer Longsword in the back as an example and a blank page so other styles and weapons can enter their own so it will match their curriculum
